"are you sure" exit prompt in python tkinter GUI

Question

I have written my first program on Python 3.4, including a GUI using Tkinter. (Hooray!) I have an option to save input (create a text file and a csv from what they've input), or people can X out of the program without saving the info.

Is there a way to bring up an "are you sure you want to exit without saving?" prompt when people click the X to exit?

Perfect, thanks. Didn't find it when I looked, must have been searching wrong terms. — Mic, Sep 22 '14 at 09:06

Use tkMessageBox maybe.

Here's an example from another query Tkinter askquestion dialog box.

He was asked how to execute a command when user tries to terminate the program. Not how to show a messagebox. – Yılmaz Alpaslan Jun 18 '21 at 16:38
